We're thrilled to introduce two outstanding new members of our Board of Directors 🎉

Rachel Urquhart brings invaluable legal expertise to our team. As an attorney with Maynard Nexson, she specializes in navigating the complex world of insurance and healthcare systems. Rachel's commitment to serving others runs deep—she previously led ARC of Kent County as Executive Director for more than a year and has a long track record of nonprofit involvement. Her connection to our work is deeply personal, with family members on the autism spectrum and a child who gives their time to our summer programs. Since coming on board this past June, Rachel has already helped us better understand the intricate financial and policy landscape we navigate.

Kyle Szucs serves as Associate Development Director at MSU's College of Human Medicine and brings years of experience in nonprofit development and fundraising, including his recent work with Kids Food Basket. What stands out most about Kyle is his genuine dedication to our mission and his natural ability to connect with and support the families in our community. Though his role isn't to fundraise for us directly, he's generously shared his knowledge with both our Board and Director Team, helping us strengthen our relationships and expand our reach. Since joining us in August, Kyle has become one of our most active and engaged board members.

Please join us in welcoming Rachel and Kyle to the Comprehensive Therapy Center family! 💙
